Chapter 172 Two Animals
"Director Zhou Cheng?"
Zhang Qing was surprised to see the stranger knocking on the door.
Director Zhou Cheng is the leader of the fifth generation of mainland directors.
He has also appeared in several wonderful movies and won awards.
The first film "Yellow Moon" won the Golden Bear Award for Best Film at the 38th Berlin International Film Festival, the Best Feature Film Award at the 8th China Golden Rooster Award, and the Best Feature Film Award at the 11th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Award.
prize.
And because his films eulogized the Chinese nation's exciting and exciting national spirit, he was "praised" by the industry as a "national teacher".
Unexpectedly, not only was Zhou Cheng not feared by the gang, but he became more courageous as he fought, and continued to win various awards at various domestic and international film festivals, bringing glory to the country.
Not many Chinese people don't know him.
"Hello, are you Mr. Zhang Qingzhang?"
Zhou Cheng looked at Zhang Qing and asked with a polite smile, not looking down on him because of his age.
Given Zhou Cheng's status, this kind of behavior directly moved Jin Xing and Li Chudong who came after him.
Zhang Qing said: "I don't dare, Director Zhou, just call me Xiao Zhang. You are a little older than my father."
Zhou Cheng's simple face was full of smiles and he said: "That won't work, that won't work. I heard that everyone around Mr. Zhang is called Qing Shao. Even though it is our first time meeting him, I will follow the local custom and call him Qing Shao."
Zhang Qing couldn't stand it anymore. This man had actually met the elders in the Red Wall. He smiled bitterly and said: "Director Zhou, just call me Qingzi. My classmates and friends all call me this, and my subordinates in the company occasionally call me Qingzi."
I'm not used to being called young, but I can't help it. They say I'm too young, and calling me general manager is looked down upon outside. It's not like the feudal society."
Zhou Cheng smiled and said: "It's OK to call me Qingzi... but you don't want to call me you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, I am from Chang'an, you are from Xijiang, neither of them are from Pingjing, it is better to use you, it is easier."
These people from Pingjing are good at everything, but they are so polite that people can't stand it. Only they themselves know what they think about you when they talk about you."
Zhang Qing and the other three laughed together and said yes.
Later, Zhang Qing introduced Jin Xing and Li Chudong to Zhou Cheng, and Zhou Cheng also shook hands with a smile on his face and was approachable.
You can feel that his approachability is sincere and not staged. At least Jin Xing and Li Chudong have become his loyal fans.
After being invited to sit down in the backyard again, Zhang Qing said with a smile: "It's not cold today. I just finished the exam, so I will have some barbecue with two friends to relax."
Zhou Cheng joked: "With your current age and status, if you don't go to a club to enjoy the party, you should find some singers to entertain you."
Jin Xing and Li Chudong were shocked when they heard this, their eyes lit up, and they all looked at Zhou Cheng with much more cordial and warm eyes.
Sure enough, regardless of the age difference between men, as long as they talk about these things, they can quickly build a relationship.
Don't underestimate Zhou Cheng, he is honest and down-to-earth. In fact, he still has the restless heart of a man, but he is not as absurd and excessive.
Jin Xing said suspiciously: "Zhang Qing said that no one in the industry cares about him and he doesn't know female celebrities at all."
Zhang Qingli said confidently: "I didn't know him in the first place."
After chewing a mouthful of mutton skewers, Zhou Cheng said with a smile: "I've heard about this. They wanted to invite you to many award ceremonies, but you didn't go to any of them. People in the company said that you were reviewing your homework to prepare for the final exam. The organizer
It makes no sense. It’s too low-key and doesn’t look like someone in the industry.”
In fact, he has also heard about this most popular newcomer and some of the ups and downs in the Beijing music circle. At least Pingjing's music awards ceremony seems to rarely send invitations to Du Juan.
Zhang Qing got down to business: "Director Zhou is here for something, right?"
Zhou Cheng became more serious, looked at Zhang Qing and said with a smile: "Okay, you young people are still nimble, so I will get straight to the point. I am now preparing to make a movie about a rural girl in a remote mountain village.
Rural people went to the city to work, experienced all kinds of hardships, encountered many absurdities, dangers and almost desperate situations, but in the end, they saw the story of the sunshine. Starting in 1992, there was a wave of rural farmers going to the city to work.
More than 40 million farmers have migrated to the coast and cities to work, and the number has increased year by year. How much bitterness, blood and tears are behind such a huge number? This is a movie about the struggle of the people at the bottom. I think the filmmakers should
It has certain social responsibility and responsibility, so I want to film it."
Jin Xing and Li Chudong both understood and were afraid they would look at Zhou Yanyan.
Zhang Qing also understood, he smiled and said: "Director Zhou wants to find the girl in the music video to make a movie?"
Zhou Cheng nodded and said: "Exactly! I accidentally saw this MV the other day, and I was shocked! In all these years of filming, I have never seen such a beautiful one. I found a lot of ways to find out about you. Once I got it,
Xin'er, I ran here by myself."
Zhang Qing hesitated and said: "Director Zhou, with all due respect, you should know that your family has never been exposed to film and television, and has never studied acting. How can you shoulder the responsibility of being the heroine of Director Zhou's movie? And to be honest, even though she is born
I live in the countryside, but I don’t actually see much of the temperament of rural people in me.”
Zhou Cheng laughed and said: "It's not the heroine, the supporting actress...it's actually a double heroine. There is a contrast in the movie, a rural girl and a young lady from a rich family in the city. They don't need much acting skills, just wearing a brand-name suit,
Well-fed and well-clothed... Don't worry, she is either a villain or has some misunderstandings, but she is also a kind-hearted girl. In the end, she became a good friend with a rural girl. Otherwise, she will not pass the trial. In fact, it is more vivid if it is made into a tragedy.
It’s easy to win awards outside. Foreigners like to watch our tragedies, but it’s not appropriate.”
After Zhang Qing thought for a while, he said: "Director Zhou, to tell you the truth, Du Juan has her own ideas about Yanyan's career plan. She will make a record first, and then make a movie. She is a heroine in a commercial film, a classic Hong Kong drama.
Island kung fu movies. Commercial movies are much simpler to shoot, just being beautiful is enough. Literary movies, she can't do well."
Zhou Cheng said hurriedly: "Qingzi, I'm not here to be honest. I really value that girl's appearance and her current explosive popularity. You are worried that her acting skills are not up to par. Do you think this will work? I and the actors from China Theater
Professor Tian Yueying is a good friend. I asked her to come out and teach that girl for half a year.
So many big stars in Hong Kong came out of the wireless training class. In fact, one session only lasts half a year. With so many people in one session, they will definitely not be able to catch up with Professor Tian to start a small studio.
Professor Tian had retired as department chair for a few years, and I begged her to accept Yanyan as a closed student.
She is highly respected in the industry, and with her as a teacher, so many big stars and directors have become senior brothers and sisters, and no one will dare to bully her in the future."
We are all adults, let alone have no friendship yet. Even if we have friendship and ask for help from others, we must understand the principle of exchange of interests, otherwise we will definitely not get along well.
Zhang Qing was not immediately moved, but it was necessary to find a teacher to teach acting. He thought for a while and said: "Director Zhou, I will think about it again. Leave a phone number and I will give you a reply within three days. By the way, Director Zhou
, do you currently have a contract with a film and television company?"
Zhou Cheng was a little amused when he heard this. He might not be successful in finding an actor, but this young man wanted to recruit him as a director. He laughed and said: "Now he is at Xinxiang Film Company."
It was only last year that he started to actually make films out of the state-owned factory.
Zhang Qingdao: "I would like to ask, Director Zhou of Xinxiang Film Company is not a shareholder or a partner, right?"
Zhou Cheng nodded and said: "Yes, I am a director, but Xinxiang's boss Zhou Yan and I have been friends for many years."
Zhang Qing smiled and said: "Since we are friends, if Dujuan Media wants to invite Director Zhou to go to Hong Kong Island to shoot a movie during his free time, I think Boss Zhou has no reason to stop it? He didn't sign an exclusive contract, right?"
Zhou Cheng was a little moved when he heard this, and said: "That's not true, I haven't even signed a formal contract... As long as the schedules don't conflict, there shouldn't be a big problem. However, the new prime minister may invest."
Zhang Qing shook his head and said: "Since we haven't even signed the contract, we naturally have no right to invest. But don't worry, Director Zhou, don't reveal it, because we are still a little busy here, and we won't be able to start filming until the end of next year at the earliest. Zhou
The director can shoot a new movie first, and then come here to see it later."
"……Oh well."
…
At night.
Not long after Zhou Cheng left, Zhang Lan and Qiao Yue came over, each holding a candied haws in their hands, laughing while eating.
When she saw three boys, they only had beer and grilled skewers. Qiao Yue said with disdain: "Let's get a plate of peanuts for a change!"
Zhang Qing haha, Jin Xing holds a grudge. When Li Chudong saw that the two of them were not talking to each other, he forced a smile and said: "No...it's okay, it's...it's fine."
Zhang Qing and Jin Xing made trouble and laughed together. Li Chudong's face immediately turned red and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Qiao Yue complained: "You are too bad, deliberately bullying others?"
Zhang Qing shook his head and said: "No...it's okay, we are...fine."
Jin Xing laughed wildly, but Li Chudong didn't say a word and hit the two beasts with his fist.
He hoped in his heart that Qiao Yue, a girl with first-class looks and charming eyes, would continue to help him, maybe from now on...
But before he could finish his thoughts, Qiao Yue looked at Zhang Qing and smiled, saying: "It seems that you really regard them as friends. When you were with us, I have never seen you so lively.
.Since we are true friends, why don’t we go over and play together? We have a lot of food, including roast duck, grilled fish, roasted hooves, and some cooked side dishes and fruit snacks. How can we finish it? It’s so easy for you.”
I think I must have called someone to buy it and deliver it.
Zhang Qing asked Zhang Land: "Has Shui'er gone?"
Zhang Lan shook his head and said: "She won't go, and neither will Yue Shan, but I gave them a lot of food."
Qiao Yue sighed with emotion: "It's really unusual for such a young child to have such a right idea. Why do you want to compete with that child? Are you still holding a grudge?" Suddenly the topic turned to Venus.
Jin Xing was panicked, but she kept a calm expression on her face and said in a rather speechless tone: "What kind of hatred is that? I have forgotten it a long time ago. But I have to take care of my brother. He is shy when he sees beautiful women and can't speak. His legs
He is also trembling, we cannot abandon him..."
Hearing this, Qiao Yue looked at Li Chudong and saw Li Chudong's chubby face, which became even redder.
She chuckled and said, "It's going to be over now. My friends will definitely help you cure this problem tonight!"
Li Chudong was also a wonderful man. He covered his heart and said in a trembling voice, half-truthful and half-false: "Forget it...forget it, I...I'm flustered."
Zhang Qing and Jin Xing laughed wildly, and Zhang Lan also laughed.
Qiao Yue had no choice but to glare at the instigator Zhang Qing and turned away.
However, after walking a few steps, I suddenly turned back and saw the eyes of two boys, one fat and one thin, looking back in panic, looking at the remaining direction, which should be her butt.
Two bastards!
It's a pity that people who should see it don't see it, and people who shouldn't see it see it randomly.
Fox-like eyes glared at Zhang Qing, who was laughing, and Qiao Yue really left with Zhang Lan.
But after a while, all the girls came here carrying all kinds of delicious food and moved their positions.
Compared with Zhang Qing's surprise, Jin Xing and Li Chudong became excited.
However, Qiao Yue saw that the two of them were really quiet and elegant in front of Zhou Yanyan. It was both funny and helpless, and she cursed in her heart:
Grandma!!
